The cake pops were my favorite part. They look delicious. You are a very busy lady, so never apologize when you must end a video. Your family comes first. I hope you had a great Shabbat.

Hi Chana - this is going to be a weird comment but...I don't normally watch all of your videos. I"ll watch one here or there. We recently had our second son so we have a 2 year old and a 7 week old. I was standing at the sink a few weeks ago, sleep deprived and my two year old was losing his mind, baby decided sleep wasn't going to happen and you popped into my head saying "and that's okay" with a smile, as you always do in your videos. And it gave me encouragement to take a deep breath and say "today nothing may get done besides caring for kiddos and that's okay." Anyway, now I have been putting your videos on in the background as I fold laundry and do dishes and it is helping me feel not so alone in these days with littles when things dont always go as planned...and thats okay! So thank you. Thank you for showing a calm mom even in the chaos. And even in this video, recognizing a bad mood is coming on and stopping it in its tracks.

[@jaroffireflies]

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this comment. It’s definitely hard to have a baby and a toddler. Hang in there! Caring for the kids is your most important job and you’re doing amazing ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thank you for encouraging me ☺️

[@user-jw7rb8bv2t]

@jaroffireflies Hi Chana! Love your videos. Hope you continue sharing your story and great ideas. I agree with this comment... I don't have kiddos yet but you model the kind of mother I hope to be one day and give me a clearer idea of the family I hope to have. TODA :)

[@bettymaines6305]

It is so very considerate of you to prepare food especially to make your guests feel comfortable.

Good afternoon Channah.from Israel.. it is Mon..we are in times of miracles and Moshiach. And getting Pesaech done .. not easy but Hashem is with us every step of the way!! Love and kisses to the kinderlach

Thank you so much Debbie!

[@lynnwilliams8295]

Chana I wish I had half of your energy, dedication, faith and all around positive personality. I tend to think the worst and be very hard on myself if I don’t get all the things done perfectly. Since I’ve been watching I tell myself “that’s ok” just like you do! I’m not of the Jewish faith but may Hashem bless and keep you and your family.

[@jaroffireflies]

Thank you! I’m so glad that phrase has resonated with you ❤️❤️❤️

[@courtneycerulo2718]

Chana, if you use the syringe and put it in the hole on the back of the POD and push hard it will crack the “motherboard “ of that POD and it will stop “screaming “ like that

I loved these cake pops! I have tried and failed several times, but I’m about to buy some molds like this when I go to Dollar Tree today and try them for family supper on Wednesday!! Mondays are my “get the house life together” days, and I always put on your videos to body double. Thanks for all your real, kind, thoughtful, and relaxing content. Praying for you and your family in this time. Hope all your Israeli family is safe today! ❤

I love the raisins! I can’t imagine them without them.

Why not make half no raisins then add raisins to the other half

This is an Apple crumble in the UK but we would use cooking apples as eating apples don’t pulp in the same way . I would use Bramley apples which are green and will be very sharp even when ripe

[@jaroffireflies]

i have tried this with green apples, but I find it too tart. I prefer the mildness in this dish of the red apples :)

[@TeresaRaab-hb5co]

I know it as apple crisp here in my part of the US.

[@BrowneyedGirlmjd]

Family comes first!!! I never cook so a half day prep to me is a grand slam homerun!! I am so proud that I remembered enough of my junior high French that I understood what you said!! I really should try to learn it again. I don't think your code for Babbel will work for me in Canada but I will check it out just the same. It sounds like an easy way to learn it. I'm told roasted Brussel Sprouts taste good. My internal 3 year old is still telling me they are yucky and don't try them. Not wanting to waste food I don't feel like buying a bag of them to find out!! LOL Ya that's it. I don't want to potentially waste food so the 3 year old wins. I love the cake pop molds!! Are they from Amazon?

[@jaroffireflies]

Yes! From Amazon! And girl yes I hear you on the Brussels sprouts, but I’m so glad I tried them because they are such a favorite for me now!

[@nicolebowman8685]

Those cake pops came out great! I think the molds make the pops extra cute. A little trick my aunt taught me is to use a food grade tiny paint brush to push the chocolate up the sides of the molds. It helps especially if you start experimenting with different shaped molds. I made some chocolate frog cake bites for a Harry Potter party not too long ago.
